Title: Adam’s Drag Inserts. Job Done.
Post by: handi2 on January 05, 2020, 06:17:11 PM
Here are a couple of pictures of 9/0 reels I have done for many, many customers. Also a picture of what they can catch.

The owner of the 2 reels placed first and second in the Amberjack division in a tournament a couple of months ago.

Good job, always good to see equipment we build putting fish on the deck, even better when they win tournaments...Bill

It is a great product from Adam, I'm still trying to figure out why the 7+1 standard set works better on a 16/0 😏.
I had to replace two sets for members.

I do however like them on most other reels, especially the 9/0's , 6/0's and 4/0's.

One of the best upgrade here.

Ive been working towards 1.5mm washers in all the 114H and up kits.  They seem to hold up better at higher drag settings, and still put out more max drag than most anyone can actually use.

DONKEYS! They'll give you a workout!  ;D

Just curious, but what do they do with those fish after all is said and done?

Forgive the dumb question,  but are you referring to metal washers?

No, the carbon fiber washers.  The metal washers will stay .031" thick titanium for 114h/115 and under, and .063 stainless for the 116 and up.
